Drilling hole only helps if you make it through all three walls, which requires a 6" bit. The holes seem to help a bit, plugging them up won't hurt either.

I've tried running it without the exhaust and i didn't notice any chnage at all. do think it is safe to be even runnin without and exhaust???????

all engines,
especially two strokes - need back pressure.
unless there running at a million rpm - then you don't need it.
but yeah its all about balance -
i think it was noiseguy who made a pipe that looks like a dirtbike header with the big bulge and little silencer - thats probably magic. but no pipe - sounds like alot of noise and no go.

Bwa ha ha. 2 strokes won't run like that. The Spree will hardly go at all with the exhaust removed, from what we've seen here.
